The New Edicion Limitad 2005 - First Impressions

By David, on 27/07/2005 13:56
Having allowed the new cigars sufficient time to settle in my humidor after their travels, I have now had a chance to smoke one of each of the new EL's. The H.Upmann Magnum 50 EL 2005 is simply outstanding and will get even better with time. Powerful, in the same range as the Cohiba Siglo VI, complex and smokes so smoothly. By far my favorite of the new EL's, at this stage. The RyJ Petit Piramides EL 2005 is a great break-time cigar. It is a short Belicosos, so starts off directly and very hot and just gets stronger. A small bomb ! I must admit, I am not a fan of these 'halfling' cigars, but I was presently surprised. The Montecristo D EL 2005, is the one that I feel still needs a bit of time to come into its own. For the moment I found the flavors were present, hints of spicy/coffee, but the smoke is still too linear and still lacks in development. My recommendation is to get the H.Upmann Magnum 50's at the moment, as I fear they will be very popular and the limited stock will quickly run out. Don't miss out on this great cigar. Enjoy !
